For homework, please finish reading the book!
Then, complete the Venn diagram template that I am sending you over email.
Remember how we've discussed that "Bridge to Terabithia" tells a story about a friendship of two individuals who are both similar and different from each other. These differences and similarities make a friendship that is very strong. Using the Venn diagram, share your ideas about how the author compares and contrasts Jess and Leslie.
Also, please translate the paragraph on page 153, beginning with "'OK, May Belle.’ The words came out more steadily..." until "'OK,' he said. 'Now back up.'" Translate this into Chinese, knowing that you will translate the Chinese into English during class.
Lastly, make 1-3 sentences using some of the following new words:
- Any words from the sentence on page 116: "Dread lay on Jess's stomach like a hunk of cold, undigested doughnut."
- Laid off (page 102)
- Scrape [together money] (page 100)
- Committed [a wrong or a crime] (page 109)
Have fun, and see you next week!
